Egyptian Electricity Minister Mohamed Shaker asserted that Egypt – under the leadership of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi – is moving ahead towards a new stage of building nuclear reactors.

This came during a virtual press conference following a ceremony to pour concrete of electricity unit no. 4 of the Dabaa nuclear power plant.

Shaker said Egypt is racing against time to reach all aspired goals under the leadership of Sisi.

Thanks to high-level coordination with the Russian company Rosatom and other partners, these achievements were realized over a brief period, he accentuated.

He said this reflects the strenuous efforts exerted by the Egyptian and Russian presidents in realizing the aspired goal.

Shaker thanked both Sisi and Russian president Vladimir Putin and the work teams of both countries for the great efforts exerted in such projects.
